Giants general manager Bobby Evans said he likes Eduardo Nunez as an everyday player.

Evans added, however, that he's not completely dismissing the acquisition of a new starting third baseman. Nunez, who's played all around the diamond in his career, slashed .288/.325/.432 with 16 home runs, 67 RBI, and 40 stolen bases in 141 games this season between Minnesota and San Francisco. He was limited to pinch-hitting in the NLDS because of a hamstring injury. 2017 will be Nunez's final season under contract. Oct 13 - 3:01 PM

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Eduardo Nunez (hamstring) and Angel Pagan (back) may have to be placed on the disabled list.

Nunez has been bothered by hamstring troubles for nearly three weeks, but the Giants put him on their postseason roster in the hope that he might be able to contribute off the bench in the best-of-five NLDS. Nunez is 0-for-3 so far in three pinch-hitting appearances against the Cubs and has struggled to get down the first-base line when he puts the ball in play. Pagan was scratched from Game 2 with back spasms and remains out of the lineup Tuesday night. If the Giants survive Game 4 on Tuesday, look for some changes to the roster ahead of Game 5.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said Eduardo Nunez (hamstring) will be available to pinch-hit against the Cubs Saturday in Game 2 of the NLDS.

Bochy admitted he was "concerned" after seeing Nunez limp down the first-base line in a pinch-hitting appearance on Friday. However Nunez will still be available off the bench for Game 2. Including tonight, Nunez has been out of the starting lineup for eight straight games. Conor Gillaspie will draw another start at third base on Saturday. Oct 8 - 5:56 PM

Nunez won't be ready to start in Game 1 on Friday, but obviously the Giants feel that he'll be well enough to contribute at some point during the series. He hasn't played in nearly two weeks due to a right hamstring injury. Cole Gillaspie should start Game 1 on Friday. Ty Blach also earned a spot for the Giants, knocking Steven Okert off the roster.
